Generally, I am free: Sat/Sun - Anytime M-F - Extremely early morning or after 3:30pm I will always provide fresh water when I come in and before I leave.

“Kaleem is an amazing dog walker and a wonderful person. He has taken care of my dogs for over a year, spending lots of time in my home with them when I’m at work, boarding them at his own home, and driving them around town etc. I trust him implicitly, and he has made it possible for me to maintain a busy career and travel regularly while knowing that my pups are with someone who has become as trusted as family.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Branford Center
Layla took excellent care of our little pup and was really flexible and highly responsive when our plans changed. Our dog has a bit of separation anxiety but we notice even after a multi day absence when we come back after Layla’s care she is very relaxed. We highly recommend her.
Kaitlin was excellent; From the beginning she made me feel assured that she was doing this for the right reason - she showed she cared about my dog through a simple text, I know Evie had a great walk because she's still sleeping and its been over 3 hours since she got back. That makes me happy. Kaitlin was on time, friendly, and Evie seemed to have a great time with her. That's the most important part. So yes, I would recommend Kaitlin.
Connor did an outstanding job taking care of Willow. He came to our home to meet her prior to his care date. He anticipated our dog’s need to know and trust him so he asked if he could bring her treats and even asked about possible food allergies. During our meet and greet he was kind, patient, very loving towards our dog, asked appropriate questions, and took the time to take a walk to strengthen his bond with Willow. I knew right away that he was trustworthy and quite capable of handling our sometimes wary Great Pyrenees. On the care date, Connor arrived for two walks on time, followed my instructions, sent me pictures and updates as to how our dog was doing, tracked the walk so I could see where they went, and even fed her as well as my two cats! He left the house immaculate and we returned home to a very happy dog. I highly recommend Connor and will definitely hire him again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Branford Center on Rover is $17.12 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 3,053 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Branford Center. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Branford Center. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Branford Center.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Branford Center. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
